| Health & Support | Postpartum moms wanting to lose weight... | Jan 12 2007 21:33 (UTC) |

| Hi all! Just got clued in to this sight! Glad to see I am not alone! Her is a summary of me...
I am 25 years old, I am 5'1 and weigh 137. All through highscool I was overweight...around 160...then after my first son in 1999 I lost about 20 pounds. I go up and down with depression and ended up gaining it all back plus a few... after I left his father and moved out on my own I got back down to the 145 and felt great even though that was still overweight for my height...I met my present boyfriend and in 2004 got pregnant with my second son. After I had him though I lost a bunch and was down to 120. I made myself gain 5 pounds and was very happy with my body at 125. Low and behold...2005 I get pregnant again...this time a big surprise...I had my daughter in May 2006 and gained 25 pounds during the pregnancy. She is now 7 1/2 months and I am at 137. I HATE IT! I cannot fit into any of my clothes...and i can't afford to buy a whole new wardrobe, especially with plans to lose it all...or most of it. Right now I am counting calories although I haven't started a regular excercise routine yet...but I just feel like I am doomed. Hopefully, this sight will help... |

| I am glad to find others that understand me...thanks...and i will try to help anyone else who needs it stay motivated.
Does anyone know exactly how long it takes to see any results once you start counting calories?? Is it supposed to me a pound per week? And I have no clue what Slim in 6 is...anyone wanna fill me in? |

| I was on Wellbutrin SR for awhile during the end of my third pregnancy...my midwife was a little owrried that it would stop me from gaining weight...it stayed steady but after I had the baby it got me right back to my 125 from before baby...I got off of it though and I have gained about 12 pounds in7 months! | |||

| I am there too...although i am only barely 5'1...I have to buy a fabric glue for a lot of my pants...to shorten the legs...I am definitely bottom heavy and no matter how much weight I lose that is always the case... Right now I am trying to lose my post prego weight...my clothes all fit completely different now cause all the weight I gained migrated to my hips, thighs, butt and belly...c'mon now...not fair...
What are you all doing to try to tame the bottom half? |

| I am 137 trying to find my way down to 120...I'm barely 5'1" and my third child was born 7 months ago. I was 150'2-160's all thru highschool and after my first child went down to around 140-145 then after my second I got down to 120...I was happiest at 125 where I stayed until I got pregnant by surprise with my third. I gained 25 pounds with this child and am stuck at 137. I can't find time to actually excercise although I am very active with kids and work...so I have been trying to watch calories... everytime I see the scale or the mirror it discourages me and I feel like I will be stuck with this extra 10-15 pounds. Anyone have any motivating ideas?! | |||
